Entered the lab at 11:00 am. The lab is far too hot (78F) and humid (45%)!
Inventoried available photodiodes in the cryo lab, on the PSOMA wiki.

Facilities came to check the fire alarm. I let them in with shoe covers, they held a magnet up to the fire alarm and left. Total operation took less than 5 min.
[lunch and a couple meetings 1 - 3]
Pretty tired honestly, I submitted an order for a few things we want in the lab, such as:
- 2x "ultra quiet" fans to circulate air
- longer ethernet cable for reaching far end of PSOMA table
- headset web cam so we can take video while doing lab activities
- more plastic storage bins
- food and water for our emergency kit
The PSOMA optics table is from TMC vibration control (TMC 784-29701-01). I sent them an inquiry for the datasheet, and also asked whether they sell clean enclosures or have application notes that might help us put one together. Also talked with Arian Jadbabaie a bit about the Hutzler lab enclosures, and got some photos.
